Venice is a 9 year old boy paradise--boats everywhere and lots of pizza and gelato. Ryan is constantly taking photographs at all his favorite spots: The Grande Canal, The Guggenheim Museum, and any restaurant serving Tagliatelli al Funghi. And of course any shop with chocolate or pizza. So here are Ryan's first "officially" published photographs. Linda's favorite is the first one-- "Ryan Self-Portrait in Pizza". David loves the last one "View from The Rialto Bridge at Sunset". Ryans fav: "Dog on Vaparetto."

We're packing our suitcases for one of the most beautiful cities in the world--Venice, Italy. We cannot say much about the sure to be stunning wedding weekend we will be photographing there, except to report what Vogue magazine has already reported, that our client, who frequently graces the pages of Vogue in reports from the New York social and fashion scene, will be married at the Venice Opera House.

Here's what's on everyones wish list for Venice:

David: take gorgeous photographs and practice his ItalianLinda: visit the Peggy Guggenheim Museum and cruise the Grande CanalRyan: ride on a gondola and eat gelato

The Murrays--Our Story

David and Linda spent years in the fast-track world of photojournalism and network news. David was named a Pulitzer Prize Finalist for his work in Haiti, and worked for many national publications including The New York Times, The Ft. Lauderdale News and Sun Sentinel and The Atlanta Journal and Constitution. Linda was a Peabody and Emmy award-winning foreign correspondent for ABC NEWS and CNN. After their son Ryan was born they moved to their beach house on the coast of Maine where they created David Murray Weddings. Five years ago they welcomed John to their studio as a principal photographer. Recently, David Murray Weddings expanded to include a studio in Atlanta, Georgia. Atlanta is second home to David and Linda as it is where they spent much of their careers. They now divide their time between Atlanta and New England. The couple that once covered wars together now spends time documenting the far more civilized social ritual of marriage.
